I'm gonna add my opinion here but I just wanna point out that I haven't actually seen the Oscar ceremony yet (due to the fact that I live in Britain and we have to wait aaaaaaaaaaaages before we get to see anything decent).
1. I didn't actually get to see many of the movies that were nominated (again due to the fact that I live in Britain and most of the movies haven't even been released here yet!) but I'm really, really glad that LOTR didn't win best picture cos it has to be one of the most overrated movies of all time!!!!
2. You people can congratulate Halle Berry and Denzel Washington all you want but, to me, it all seems like a bit of a fix. I mean, black people don't win these prestigeous awards for years and then, all-of-a-sudden, 2 black people win best actor and best actress in the same year!!!!!!!! I haven't seen 'Training Day' or 'Monsters Ball' but I think the Academy were just trying to be P.C. by letting 2 black actors win. Halle Berry is pretty hot though, so I shan't complain

3. Although I haven't yet seen 'In the Bedroom', I think Marisa Tomei should've won best supporting actress cos I have been a fan of hers for years.
4. David Lynch should've won Best Director cos that guy is a genius!
